MicrosoftFeature update: Email sending behavior for Groups in Outlook
Nicholas Williams - No, there is no effect to group subscription options with this change. Subscribed users will continue to receive all group conversations, messages and events in their inbox as usual.
The only effect of this change will be on the sender of the messages to groups as below.
Old behavior
I send a message to a group, or reply back to a message from a group. Message is delivered to the group and is available in the group's conversation archive. I would also receive my message in back my inbox.
Revised behavior
I send a message to a group, or reply back to a message from a group. Message is delivered to the group and is available in the group's conversation archive. I would NOT receive my message in back my inbox.
Would be great if you can help us understand why your users are complaining with this change? What additional benefit does it provide to users when they receive their sent email back again in their inbox? Is it just a confirmation that the message was delivered to the group?
Ravin Sachdeva Since this keeps popping up when searching for O365 Groups email sending behavior and there is now an option to control this, albeit only in OWA, I just want to add this here. The linked roadmap item, which has been launched, addresses the ability to control whether one wants to receive a copy of messages they send to one of their groups:

Thanks, Microsoft, for adding this feature!
Kreera_House any update on this, I am not able to access the link you shared in the message
Alpha66100 - The roadmap item is apparently so old that it is no longer available. Are you referring to this setting?
- Yes @kreera , I am asking for the same feature, but it looks like this setting is already been turned off on my account and still getting the email.
